This one has been aging for a while. It's like a dessert wine now with it's deep yellow hue, thickness, and extreme sweetness. Nice, but I'll probably just sip on this one over the next few days and open something else for immediate consumption!

Golden in the glass. Honeysuckle and candied/cinnamon apple and apricot nose. Lemon syrup early, and the cinnamon and lilac come back with lemon custard on the midpalate, finishing after 45+ seconds into an elderflower liqueur finish. Alcohol apparent on the end, but still very good. Not getting any better? SJ made hatch chile Prosper grass fed beef meatballs with a hatch chile pesto.

A bit fat and hot for my liking. It has nice richness, fruit, aromatics and mineral but seems a bit out of balance. I enjoy Paso wines but hate when the the alcohol gets in the way. 2008 is a great vintage for reds in Paso, but I've found a lack of freshness and balance is many of the whites. Still Denner is a solid winery with many great wines!

Luscious, round and lingering with a clean dry finish. Lovely and in its prime.
